Ostrich on the ostrich farm in Curacao

In the night from Saturday, December 7 to Sunday, December 8, 2024, four ostriches were killed on the ostrich farm on the road to Groot St. Joris. The animals were found dead on Sunday morning. A spokesperson for the farm expressed deep sadness at the loss. Apparently stray dogs from the neighborhood were able to enter the property and tore the ostriches apart.

The farm has urged residents to keep a close eye on their pets. They should ensure that they stay on their property to prevent similar incidents in the future.

As the ostrich farm is a popular tourist attraction on Curacao and is home to numerous animals, the incident raises concerns for the safety of the wildlife on site.

  • Quiz Question

    What is Bolo di Manteka?

    Answer

    The translation of the term once again reveals Papiamentu as a mixed language:
    bolo=cake from Portuguese and manteca=butter from Spanish.
    In Papiamentu, the “de” becomes “di” and the “c” is replaced by a “k”.

    Bolo di manteca is a butter cake – the basic recipe is a pound cake made with wheat flour.
    Bolos are moist and yummy and keep for several days in the fridge. They are available in all supermarkets in many different varieties – we have eaten them plain, in 3 colors, as marble cake and also with chocolate chips.

    You can’t go wrong with that choice for your children.
    A clear recommendation for sweet tooths!
